public class HttpSessionBindingEvent
extends HttpSessionEvent

Events of this type are either sent to an object that implements `HttpSessionBindingListener` when it is bound or unbound from a session, or to a `HttpSessionAttributeListener` that has been configured in the deployment descriptor when any attribute is bound, unbound or replaced in a session.

The session binds the object by a call to `HttpSession.setAttribute` and unbinds the object by a call to `HttpSession.removeAttribute`.
